Grevillea paniculata is a shrub which is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It grows to between 0.6 and 3 metres in height and produces white, cream or yellow flowers between June and November (early winter to late spring) in its native range.
The species was first formally described in 1845 by botanist Swiss Carl Meissner in Plantae Preissianae in 1845, based on plant material collected by Ludwig Preiss near York.
